TIMI and Bookbinding: A junk-book

Inspiration post at TIMI, where the theme is ''Ink Stitch Paint Collage Print Paper' (and stamping, of course)! And after the vintage-ish, Parisian ATB, I return to my colourful style.Lately I am a little bit overwhelmed by the junky I am collecting: boxes, papers, leftovers, fabric, don't really know where to stuff all these things. So I decided to make a junkybook, with a 'proper' binding made with the tons of papers and fabric I collected during the Printmaking course at school.I wanted to follow this tutorial, but at the end I was too lazy and I strectched it a little bit, and no plastic bags involved...I took some pictures, but just to give you an idea, I advice you to follow one of the dozens tutorials you can find on Pinterest.
Secondo post del mese su TIMI dove il tema è 'Ink Stitch Paint Collage Print Paper' e timbri naturalmente! Io, con tutta la monnezza che colleziono freneticamente ho realizzato un junk book, cimentandomi persino nella rilegatura. Il tutorial che avrei voluto seguire era questo, ma poi ho un pò deragliato, e me lo sono inventato diciamo. Comunque su Pinterest si possono trovare tutorial fantastici.

Fantastic to see all your overcrowding "junk" turned into such a beautiful journal, Gio, as well as those adorable tiny books. Amazing colours - and I just love the button fastenings. A really inspiring post for someone who also has junk coming out of her ears and nowhere left to store it!!Alison xx
